  1. Or a tradeable asset. Probably not much but a contender in win now mode might give up a semi-decent prospect or a 3rd round pick.
  2. I was listening to the Carbery's postgame. He was talking about the need to get 5 on 5 goals and that while they deserve credit for their OT wins and 2-1 wins, in order to be a quality team, you have to score 5 on 5. Dude is impressive. I hope he's around for an actual rebuild instead of this middling junk.
  3. Excellent work. Keep it up as long as you are feeling good.
  4. Feel like @Die Hard has to break this one out at least twice a week.
  5. Warriors with a big time win against Boston. Curry's shot was ridiculous. Draymond being Draymond and Wiggins being bad forced the Warriors to go young and they start playing better. Funny how that happens to teams that refuse to see the need themselves.
  6. Ja probably isn't celebrating the way he would in seasons past. Hopefully.
  7. I just listened to the follow up interview. Monumental really doesn't care all that much about the sports teams. This is, in their words, "more about the opportunity to diversify the portfolio of what they are offering." They want more concerts and events so they will use two building for that purpose.
  8. Warriors have some obvious moves if they are ready to begin to move on. Wiggins has a very tradeable contract they should be looking to move this season. Thompson and Paul will be gone next season. They could create cap space and playing time for the next generation. They should've moved on from Draymond this off-season. Was the perfect opportunity. I don't feel sorry for that team at all.
  9. https://www.wsj.com/video/rep-elise-stefanik-grills-penn-president-liz-magill-on-campus-antisemitism/BC48A26D-FCC2-4DF1-9E01-0E18042A604A The transcript you posted is missing a couple hours worth of testimony.
  10. He should pay for it with all his money connections. Ted is just a typical owner that only cares about money at the end of the day.
  11. I have zero sympathy for the Penn president and her attempt to clarify only made it worse. This was the most softball of softball questions. Yes, calling for the genocide of Jews is harassment and bullying. The worst part is when she said that it wasn't until it became conduct. I mean, wtf.
  12. Baseball needs to change this asap. It's a massive advantage for wealthy teams to be able to defer money and it be discounted against the current luxury tax system.
  13. 80% of NBA players look more athletic than Zion these days. (only half joking)
  14. You can take a break from **** riding Lebron, it's okay. LeBron is not overlapping the 80s-90s eras of basketball. You ask for an honest conversation and can't even be honest about the differences. I already said what LeBron is doing is amazing.
  15. Take a joke about the suspension. Regarding minutes played, you said "Keep the conversation honest, please." If you really want an honest conversation, the fact that the NBA has expanded playoffs and changed the defensive rules matter a lot. The ability to enter the NBA from high school matters a lot. The way training and recovery has changed, matters a lot. It's not an honest conversation without acknowledging all of that. What LeBron is doing is amazing. It's not comparable to other eras and vice versa because of the differences of those eras with today's NBA.
  16. FTFY. To be honest, LeBron has that record already due to expanded playoffs compared to Kareem. But you make a fair point in comparison to Jordan about load management.
  17. What LeBron is doing is awesome but trying to compare longevity to Jordan isn't apples to apples. The common fouls on Jordan back in the day are flagrant fouls now and there was substantially more defensive contact permitted in the 80s and 90s. It's definitely favorable to LeBron being able to play at a high level for this long as far as wear and tear on the body. Plus, we all know training and recovery will continue to improve over time, as well as facilities which helps as well. No reason to compare the two. They are both the best players of their generations and it's not close. Also, I gotta point out that Kareem was pretty damn good at age 39.
  18. I'm not faulting the Lakers. They can only beat who is in front of them. I'd be surprised if AD stays healthy enough for a playoff run beyond last season but if he's healthy, they are as good as anyone.
  19. Lakers had a relatively easy road to win this. NBA would’ve been better served having a round of 16. OKC-Golden State was a great game last night. Far better than any of these bracket games.
  20. I don't know why people keep thinking Alabama would automatically beat FSU. They needed a hail mary prayer throw to beat a mediocre Auburn team last week. The rationale to keep FSU out cause people are trying to predict how competitive a game might be almost a month from now is everything sports is not supposed to be.
  21. I agree with your wife. Pushing doesn't help at all. We read to our kid every night for years until he wanted to start reading on his own. Two things that really helped, graphic novels like captain underpants and letter land in K-2. Letter land is a fantastic phonics tool used at schools. From there he took off. He's 9 and he will wake up and read. He crushed the Percy Jackson series this last summer and is almost done with Hero of Olympus. We were really deliberate in moving up levels to not rush, never forced him to read back to us and we let him pick what interests him. Almost forgot, I would take him to the comic book store and let him pick some out. Even if they were above his reading level at the time. Went through a transformers, power rangers and my little pony comic book phase.
